..... e Act and passed a fresh assessment order on 27.12.2017 determining the total income at Rs. Nil and did not allow carry forward of loss of ₹ 455.99 crore. This shows that the income originally determined by the Assessing Officer at Nil remained the same even after giving effect to the order passed in revision. Thus, we are confronted with a situation in which the original assessment as well as the assessment giving effect to the impugned order, remain at Nil income, and in both the situations, there is no carry forward of loss.

It is an admitted position that the claim of the assessee for its entitlement to exemption u/s 10(20) of the Act has been eventually jettisoned. It is seen that the assessee filed belated return of income outside the time prescribed u/s 139(1) of the Act.
